The Girls Golf team wrapped up an incredible Fall 2024 season marked by teamwork, resilience, and record-breaking performances. With an impressive 7-3-1 finish, the team secured both District and State championships, establishing themselves as one of the top teams in the state.
A key moment came on October 14 when the girls clinched the District title for the first time since 2015. Leading the way was sophomore Lisa Zhang ’27, who earned individual medalist honors. Close behind were co-captains Morgan Withington ’25 and Mac Froedge ’25, finishing 5th and 7th, respectively. Zhang’s success was a continuation of her strong regular season, where she medaled in eight matches, including a remarkable -7, 28. Her consistency was instrumental in the team’s overall success.
The season culminated in a dominating win at the state championship—the team’s first since 2015. Seniors Withington and Froedge played pivotal roles, with Withington placing 5th and Froedge securing 13th place. Their leadership throughout the year, both on and off the course, provided the stability and motivation the team needed. Zhang shone again at State, finishing 2nd, while junior Claire Kaiser ’26 capped off the team’s success with a solid 28th-place finish. Seniors Lilly Loeb ’25 and CeCe Harris ’25, along with sophomore Saara Pandey ’27, cheered on the team during the final round, providing crucial support that helped bring home the title.
“This season was unforgettable,” said Withington. “Our success came from working closely as a team and always pushing each other to improve. Every player contributed, and our coaches kept us focused and determined. Winning the State Championship was an amazing feeling and a reflection of all the hard work we put in. It was a great way to end the season.”
While losing Withingon and Froedge to graduation will be a challenge next year, the future of the program looks promising. With Zhang, Kaiser, and Pandey—who gained valuable experience as the team’s 5-seed—returning next season, the team is poised to continue its winning tradition. The foundation is strong, and the future promises even more excitement and success for Girls Golf.
